Dialogs that appear off screen

Submitted by rkmcswain on Tue, 05/20/2008 - 07:29

If you try to open a dialog in AutoCAD but nothing happens, there is a chance that the dialog is open, but it's just "off your screen".

Since it is off the screen, you cannot grab it with the mouse and move it back, but you can use a windows trick to move it back. When the dialog is supposed to be visible, but you can't see it, press ALT+Space, then "M", then use the arrow keys to move the dialog.
